One of the strategies most associated with certain pathological conditions is emotional repression. Despite this, there are no brief instruments in Spanish that evaluate this stress coping strategy. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to develop a brief version of the Coping Strategies Inventory that contains only three items for each factor. The sample (N = 762) was collected online and divided into two parts. The first was used to conduct an exploratory factor analysis, which showed the existence of eight dimensions. For all subsequent analyses, the second part of the sample was used. The results of the confirmatory factoranalysis showed not only adequate psychometric properties, but also the suitability of using the instrument with a first-order factorstructure rather than a higher-order one. In order to test convergent validity, significant correlations were found with all personalitytraits. It is concluded that the development of a short version of the Coping Strategies Inventory was successful, as all psychometricindices reached values equal to or even higher than the original version with more items. Cuando se percibe que una demanda externa o interna agota los recursos individuales, se utilizan ciertas estrategias para afrontar el estrés que conlleva. Una de las estrategias que más se asocia con determinadas condiciones patológicas es la represión emocional. A pesar de ello, no existen en lengua española instrumentos breves que evalúen dicha estrategia de afrontamiento del estrés. Debido a eso, el objetivo del presente estudio consistió en el desarrollo de una versión breve del Coping Strategies Inventory que contiene solamente tres ítems por cada factor. La muestra argentina (N = 762) se recogió por Internet y se dividió en dos partes. La primera se utilizó para realizar un análisis factorial exploratorio, el cual mostró la existencia de ocho dimensiones. Para todos los análisis posteriores, se utilizó la segunda parte de la muestra. Los resultados del análisis factorial confirmatorio no solo evidenciaron unas propiedades psicométricas adecuadas, sino también la idoneidad para utilizar el instrumento con una estructura factorial de primer orden y no de orden superior. Con el fin de comprobar la validez convergente, se encontraron correlaciones significativas con todos los rasgos de la personalidad. Se concluye que el desarrollo de una versión breve del Coping Strategies Inventory se realizó de forma exitosa, debido a que todos los índices psicométricos alcanzaron unos valores iguales o incluso superiores a la versión original con mayor cantidad de ítems.
